Flourishing Families was created to do just that – to see families living in deprivation flourish. There are 190,000 families in Leeds living in deprived areas, and we do what we do because all the families that come through our doors matter. We couldn’t have got this far without the work of our staff team, our dedicated volunteers and our generous donors, and we are incredibly grateful to everyone who has helped us make a difference. In 2021 we got to know Abi who came along to one of our Family cookery Clubs. Here is her story.
We’re thrilled to welcome the latest additions to our team, Tabitha, Papaya and Josiah, our Graduate Interns, and Helen, the latest member of our cookery team. We can’t wait for them to showcase their experience, expertise and enthusiasm! Let’s get to know them a little better…
“Before this group, I felt like a nobody. Now I feel like somebody.” This was the answer 8-year-old Evie gave when asked about the difference our Activity-Based Mentoring Group had made for her. This sums up for us why we do what we do. Everyone deserves to know that they matter, whatever their circumstances and challenges.
We are immensely grateful to everyone who has contributed to our slow cooker appeal.
What a great term it has been at FFL! We have been busy delivering our various groups and programmes around Leeds. Our families have loved coming along to the groups and have benefitted hugely from the activities and support from the FFL team.
